Demon Soul

The Demon Soul was a powerful artifact created by the mad black dragon Neltharion in his quest to cleanse Azeroth of anything that threatened it, which in his eyes was all life except for his own black dragonflight. Under the guise of creating a weapon to use against the Burning Legion, Neltharion tricked the other four dragon Aspects into placing part of their power into the Demon Soul. He then betrayed them at a critical moment in the war against the Burning Legion, almost destroying the blue dragonflight in the process. However, the remaining Aspects managed to steal the Demon Soul from him and place a powerful enchantment on it so that no dragon (including Neltharion) could ever wield it.
